Publisher's summary

Ex-CIA master assassin Court Gentry has always prided himself on his ability to disappear at will, to fly below the radar and exist in the shadows - to survive as the near-mythical Gray Man. But when he takes revenge upon a former employer who betrayed him, he exposes himself to something he’s never had to face before.

A killer who is just like him.

Code-named Dead Eye, Russell Whitlock is a graduate of the same ultra-secret Autonomous Asset Program that trained and once controlled Gentry. But now, Whitlock is a free agent who has been directed to terminate his fellow student of death. He knows how his target thinks, how he moves, and how he kills. And he knows the best way to do the job is to make Gentry run for his life - right up until the moment Dead Eye finally ends it.

Fantastic read and narration..

Wow! These books get better and better. This one was about another assassin who was “helping” Court Gentry/The Gray Man every time the Townsend men tried, once again, to assassinate him. But this guy had an ulterior motive and Gentry didn’t see it until almost the end of the book. AND when a friend of Gentry’s gets killed in the middle of the war against him he went nuts and it became all about revenge. I couldn’t even tell you how many were killed in this but 99.9% of them deserved it.

These are non-stop excitement and I’ve loved every one of these books.

No romance and the F-bomb was use 108 times.

As to the narration: AWESOME! Jay Snyder is simply wonderful to listen to.

What did you love best about Dead Eye?

A true secret agent

Who was your favorite character and why?

The Gray Man never misses a beat or acts like an idiot. Refreshing in this genre.

Have you listened to any of Jay Snyder’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Just what I wanted!

The Gray Man series is not for everyone. It is for those who want action and adventure built around a central character who is extremely interesting. At times, events in the book might stretch the boundries of believability, but it doesn't matter. The book is an "exciting ride." The book does contain violence and profanity, but it is not mindless or gratuitous. There is heart. As much as I enjoy action, I cannot enjoy a story without good characters. You will find yourself caring about the characters in this book.

Now that I have finished it...I want another volume in the series to become available immediately! Mark Greaney, please keep the Gray Man going!

Buy this. Need I say more?

I listened to this book on audio. This was not the first book I have listened to in the Grey Man series.

However. Due to time constraints etc it took me forever to get to this book. When I started it I was a bit...hesitant. I mean really, what can happen to Court that has not already befallen this poor man.

So I stopped, started, stopped and before I knew it I was hooked and found myself wondering why on earth it took me this long to dive back into the world of the ultimate spook.

This book was a wee bit slower than the first one I listened too. Note. Slower not slow. A lot more character development and boy if you love firearms this one is a must read.

Is this book for males only? No. I loved it. I love the moral debates, the backstabbing. The general chaos and mayhem of a world in which your own shadow can turn against you!

I loved it. Betting you will as well.

As for the narrator...this man IS Court Gentry!

My craving has been satisfied again!

This is my fourth Gray man book and it did not disappoint in the least. Mark Greaney has been able to come up with new and plausible plots for my favorite character and Jay Snyder kills it every time.
My next listen will be from another author and another genre as i don't want to go through the gray man series to quickly but as in the past I know I'm gonna be 'itching' to get to book 5 real soon.

As good as any of the rest in the series

Very enjoyable. If you liked the others this will not disappoint. Good performance also. I would easily recommend this to anyone who likes spy thriller and action type books

Dead Eye is Dead On!

Mark Greaney does a great job of creating characters and plots that are engaging and believable. He is also on FB and a "real" person if you want to reach out to him. That makes the series even more interesting to me.
Plots don't always have to be perfectly realistic, but motivations for why certain characters would do what they do need to be logical. Greaney creates this world without becoming to granular to bog down the story, or too vague that you don't feel it was well thought out. He's Dead On for my liking.
The characters are interesting and you get a feel for what they might be like as real people. Gentry has a lot of mystery around him and you feel like you're learning the essence of who he is as a person, while staying curious about the details of his life. We all like heroes, but sometimes that hero who does the wrong thing for the right reason is even more interesting.
I have several friends with SF (Special Forces) background, and I can see them being Gentry. People who are good, but who have had to do harsh things. It takes a toll, and they lived in a world that is often thankless, and bear scars that as civilians, we'll never truly understand.
We all make stories our own when we read or listen to them, and I hope you give The Gray Man series a try and find out how it fits into your world.

Another Indescribable Operator!

I love these super hi-tech good guy - bad guy super black op's international thrill rides.

Well done and a great interlude after Russian Literature.

Fantastic book!

Best narrator for the series! His voice fits the feel of the book. The author is fantastic!
